Global logistics see tariff cuts and automation shifts

Recent developments in global supply chain and logistics include a $30 billion tariff cut agreement between China and the United States, alongside the launch of a new AI dialogue between the two nations.

In the logistics sector, CMA CGM Group has completed its acquisition of FedEx Supply Chain to bolster its presence in North America. Additionally, Amazon and USPS are piloting a same-day delivery program. The industry is also seeing a push toward automation and electrification, with Tesla launching high-volume production of its Semi truck, Harbinger receiving a $300 million order for 2,000 electric trucks from FedEx, and IKEA and Kodiak preparing to launch driverless services in 2026.
